Rule 3 - Don't talk about rules of music

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Uh no, Tracer, that'd be rule four. And rule five is ignore rule four.

nathalie, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Good one

Sonicred, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Rule 3 - Ignore Rules 1 and 2.

Alex in NYC, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ja Rule.

Rule 6, or whatever: a record with traffic noises on it is a tremendous record.

Cannot back this up, beyond Hey You Chick by ROC, but is right.

Alex Linsdell, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex has come up with a stunning theory here. "Breathe" by Readymade. "Funkytown" has a car horn at the beginning. I'd like to see someone disprove it because off the top of my head I can't think of a record that does.

Tracer Hand, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Me, neither. "Bad Girls", "Living for the City", "No Parking on the Dance Floor"-I love them all.

Another Alex-I'm so excited! Hello Alex from the UK.

Rule 3 - Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothin' t' fuck wit'?

Andrew, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Rule 3 - All rules are false, including this one. Nothing is real. Everything is permitted. No purchase nessesary. Use as directed. Void where prohibited by law.

Lord Custos III, Tuesday, 18 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The best Def Leppard song is all about traffic noises.

Rule #659: The phrase "Are you ready to rock?" can only be spoken into a microphone while the speaker is wearing a neon-purple jumpsuit with spruce saplings growing out the pockets, holding a tuba with flowers painted around the bell, and hanging upside down from a traction bar. This will help discourage the practice. Also, anyone who violates this rule will be cut into bite-sized pieces, dipped into apple cider, and fed to Mission Of Burma.

Christine "Green Leafy" Indigo, Thursday, 20 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Rule 3: Your foot must be firmly planted on the guitar monitor while playing a killer guitar solo.

Traffic noise - Cab ride by Folk Imposion

John S., Thursday, 20 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

More traffic noise: "Serenata Rap" by Jovanotti. Hip-house, hey? What a great musical genre that was.

Dom Passantino, Thursday, 20 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

seven months pass...
anybody seen my pants?

Hayden (Hayden), Thursday, 23 January 2003 09:39 (twenty-three years ago)

No. Are they really exciting?

mei (mei), Thursday, 23 January 2003 11:08 (twenty-three years ago)

one month passes...
Tyler Custos: Gentlemen, welcome to Club Custos.
First rule of Club Custos is you do not talk about Club Custos.
Second rule of Club Custos is YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT CLUB CUSTOS!
Third rule of Club Custos... someone yells 'stop this shit is making my ears bleed', goes limp bizkit, runs for the exit, the listening session is over.
Fourth rule: only two LPs on a turntable at a time.
Fifth rule: one LP at a time, fellas.
Sixth rule: No Funk? No Love.
Seventh rule: Sessions will go on as long as they have to.
And the Eighth and Final rule: If this is your first night at Club Custos, you have to groove.

Narrator: You don't ask questions is the first rule of Project Pitchfork. The second rule of Project Pitchfork is you don't ask questions. The third rule in Project Pitchfork is no excuses. The fourth rule is no lies. The fifth rule is you have to trust Custos. When Custos invented Project Pitchfork, Tyler said the goal had nothing to do with other people. Tyler didn't care if other people got hurt or not. The goal was to teach that each man had the power to control his musical tastes. Each of us can take control of the soundwaves.

Rule 3: Everybody has to tell me I'm totally edgy and in-your-face for creating those wicked awesome first two rules. Please... somebody tell me that... someone...

David Allen, Friday, 21 March 2003 18:14 (twenty-three years ago)

*sigh*
okay, David...I'll tell everybody you're "edgy", okay?

(psst...do I get paid for sayin' "you're edgy?" and if so, how much?)

Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Friday, 21 March 2003 18:58 (twenty-three years ago)
